Lacanau and Boyz Noize August 19, 2008 – Tags: , ,

Ok its been a while since the last post, the reason being one part laziness, one part travel time and two parts shitty internet connections… and alot has happen since then. First up, Lacanau and the magnificent BOYS NOIZE and BUSY P.
Now Lacanau is definitely not the preferred or favorite stop on the european leg by anyones account. Its usually big, most of the time rainy and hard to find accommodation which causes most of us to stay at Bordeaux airport 40 mins from the beach. This year was no different with stormy seas and alot of stormy weather. It was going to be interesting. Lacanau is a weird beach also, either breaking about 400 metres out to sea or turning into a crazy current filled shorebreak that seems to pack the punch of a Hawaiian reef. All the boys survived into the money round which definitely keep the depression at bay, with Dozza going the furthest making the three man round of 24. And if you asked most people you’d find that Dozza suffered a massive rip off and shouldn’t have finished there, but thats surfing.
Once again as fate would have it, we were blessed with a world class music act to finish off the comp. This time it was electro madmen Boys Noize, Busy P and Yuksek. Three guys who could easily headline an Australian festival in a french warehouse. The 10 pack were joined by Nick Riley for this week and Added a member to the crew in Aaron Yabsley who would now be staying with us for the rest of the adventures. And True to from, good old Nick straight away provided the crew with an amazing laugh when, at a fuel stop, he attempted to open a bottle of red wine with a head rest using his chin as the brunt of his power. Obviously the cork flew into the bottle which followed with a rather large amount of red wine to spill fourth onto poor Nicks face and his brand new white shirt. Fantastic, the night looked like it would be a great one. And that it was.  We were the only english speaking people in there, we were well and truly sloshed and we danced hard and long into the night. There is nothing like seeing two girls enjoying their own company more than they could ever enjoy the company of a mans. Girls pashed, we grinded, Boys Noize fist pumped. Beautiful Beautiful Beautiful. Next stop Hossegor where the true fun in France happens…xx
